all ID's are unique.  It's not possible to have two separate objects
in the same application that have the same ID.  When you repeatedly
load a nib, you are creating the same objects, but they are all
separate and distinct.

For instance, if you had a nib that was a document window, you would
sinmply load the nib each time you needed a new doc window.

so yes.
